Skills Are the New CLI
4th paragraph:
Skills don't replace CLIs.
Great start.
Anyway, skills are basically an alternative to tools. I believe Anthropic made a big deal about them. They come with all the same downsides using an LLM at all comes with, which means they're fallible, nondeterministic, and possibly even an attack vector. But hey, it saves you remembering a few flags for git so whatever I guess.
